Where Do We Stand?

by Anthony   Oct 14, 2005


What are we doing?
I'm suddenly falling.
Falling for your smile,
Your outrageousness is calling.

We got together once,
And it ended in tears.
We got together twice,
And you realized your fears.

Now I need you once again,
And I don't know what to do.
It's not because I'm cruel,
And not because I can't have you.

I remember asking once,
But I need to ask again.
Where do we stand?
Am I your friend? Am I your man?

These feelings in my gut,
These unexplained emotions,
The words of the love you had,
Which I rejected with my notions.

I can't say that I love you,
I can say that I care.
You are so adorable...
You don't know your skin's so fair...

This is not what I wanted...
This is not what I planned...
I can't say for sure until
I know, Where do we stand?

    You are young, but have a great foundation to build on. Keep writing. Do not let the fire inside die. Read poetry, such as TS Elliot (Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock, Ancient Mariner, etc.) and write with your heart. Don't try to make it perfect at first blush....let your heart control the pen and get it all out....then go back and refine it. If you don't try and control the pen, don't let your ego get involved, your craft will develop quickly. You have more talent at fifteen than I did. Keep writing.

    I'll tell you exactly where you stand. Britt and I had a little chat after you left today and wow, did I find out some juicy stuff. She never said that I can't tell you, so here I go trying to make things right..again.

    She said that lately she have been feeling stronger emotions for you, she has been slapping herself so she wouldn't think of the chances she has with you.

    I asked her would you date Anthony agan if the chnace were given?

    She said....I dunno. I want to be with him, but I don't want to be tied down.

    Sounds familiar Anthony? That's because you confessed the same thing to me this afternoon.

    Only it was differently stated.

    You guys just wanted the title and the benefits of being together, but you don't want to call it a relationship...

    She's feeling the same thing you are so don't be afraid to speak to her...

    How about tomorrow afterschool?

    I'll even sit down with you guys if you want, I can translate for you guys. =P

    Just tell me, Anthony, I read yor comment and yes. And I'll understand completely.

    As for the poem, it was written very well, and I know it expresses your feelings very we too.
